Ingredients explained
Vitamin K2 (menaquinone-4)
Vitamin K2 helps activate vitamin K-dependent proteins like osteocalcin, which may support proper calcium placement in bone.
Caution: Consult a healthcare professional if using anticoagulant medicines, or with liver or kidney concerns, because vitamin K can affect blood clotting pathways.
Calcium (as dicalcium phosphate)
Calcium provides a structural mineral for bones and teeth and supports normal muscle and nerve function.
Caution: Take with food to support absorption and avoid taking at the same time as iron or certain thyroid medicines to reduce interaction risk.
How they work together
Vitamin K2 activates osteocalcin, which helps direct calcium into the bone matrix, while calcium supplies the mineral component used to build and maintain bone structure.

How could fats be important for bone health, you might ask? It turns out that certain key vitamins are fat soluble, meaning that they require fat in order to be properly absorbed and utilised in the body. Fat-soluble Vitamin K2 is very helpful with bone formation and health. Vitamin K2 may help to support the bonding of calcium to the bone matrix, which supports healthy bone density and strength. Vitamin K2 has this effect by supporting natural, healthy levels of osteocalcin, a hormone important to bone formation.
